Football

Coach: Kevin Cooper (10th year)

Last Season: 9-1, Lost in Western Maine semifinals

Players to Watch: RB/DB Tyler Pratt, OL/DL Matt Spearin, OL/DL Kyle Wedge, OL/LB, Brandon Keene, OL/DL Josh Spearin, TE/DE Travis Dunn, WR/DB John Onesti, WR/DB Darren Lovley, WR/DB Ricky Hoyt, QB Nate Doehler, RB/DB Josh Ruby, LB/RB Dayton McPherson, OL/DE Dana Jackson, TE/DL Otis Oakes

Coach’s Outlook: “We have an inexperienced team in a sense of many seniors stepping into varsity roles for the first time. There will be some growing pains but we feel we have the talent to compete for a state championship. We are very versatile and multiple on offense. Tyler Pratt, John Onesti, Darren Lovley, Ricky Hoyt and Josh Ruby all have the ability to be both ball carriers and receivers and our QB Nate Doehler should develop into one of the best passer/runner combinations in the SMAA. We have great size on our offensive and defensive lines that should allow our backs to make plays for us.”

Last year’s record: 12-5-finished sixth in states

Runners to watch: Sophomores Ashley Cox, Lauren Dudley, Corey Simmons and Keeley Cronin; freshman Amber Dostie

Coach’s outlook: “We lost a lot of seniors. Our top five runners are four sophomores and a freshman. But it’s going to be a lot of fun with no pressure. This is a good league with a lot of quality teams like Scarborough, Cheverus, McAuley, South Portland, Kennebunk, Massabesic and Thornton Academy. But I think we can fit right in with those teams.”
